He shrugged. "She asked me here... didn't even bother ordering anything, so I'm not stuck paying got two meals," he said with a half-way joking grin. "Said that she couldn't continue the relationship with my family being the way it is. I'm almost certain my Mum or Dad... maybe even Emmett or Evangeline said something that probably scared her off. And then.... she left."

She'd put her hand on his arm again. "I'm so sorry. That's...pretty rotten." She'd pause. "No chance you could...convince her otherwise? From what you've told me you're not too...thrilled with your family either."

Larissa & Peter

After a morning of wandering around in the alley swarmed with locals and tourists, tiredness was beginning to catch up. To calm the complaints in her stomach, Lari halted her tracks at the nearest dinning place. The exterior of the pub didn't really look fancy - well, quite the opposite of it actually - but at this moment, anything eatable would be great. She pushed open the door and sat down at the nearest table.

Peter had taken a day off both his jobs all to help out his parents with the Erumpents, which didn't go how Peter wanted it. He came into the Leaky Cauldron, limping slightly, before sitting down at a seat and messing up his hair to get all the dust out.

It didn't take Lari a minute before making her order. She hummed thoughtlessly as she waited for her order, and looked up when someone sat across the table. That unique odor of hay, mud and something else felt familiar to her. Dragons? Nope. Graphorns? Guess not. Eyeing at the mess of his hair, she asked sympathetically, 'Bad day?'

Ahh erumpents, that's it.. She chuckled at the realization of that familiar odor's owners, recalling her encounter with these gigantic beasts back in South Africa a year ago. 'Definitely a yes,' she agreed in amusement, 'but congrats of your survival. Either you had extremely good luck or years of experience.'

'Here, in London?' asked Lari, genuinely surprised - on one hand, by the person younger than her sitting in front of her seemingly with his limbs attached even after years of dealing with Erumpents; on the other hand, by the possibility of raising a herd of Erumpents in the city.

'Oh! I've stayed there for like a week before. They've got a sublime skyline and soothing seaside,' she recalled. 'I haven't been to the reserve there though - the magical one I mean. But the no-maj one was pretty cool.'

'I've worked at a reserve in Malawi a year ago. That place may or may not be owned by the Summers - to be honest, I don't really remember. Didn't do anything extremely dangerous like handling Erumphents back then, but I do remember it was a hella fun watching others doing that,' she laughed at the memory of her coworker doing that silly dance in front of that gigantic creature.

"Then that was probably run by my family. My family are one of the few that does extremely dangerous stuff with some of the most dangerous animals in the world. Like my parents use to ride Erumpents like people do with bulls in rodeos and raises Nundu like you would kittens."

'Your family's nut,' the words left her mouth jokingly along with a chuckle. 'No offense intended,' she added, belatedly. 'I mean - ooooh pizza!' Gleefully she nodded at the waitress with a gleeful thanks.

'True that. Though for myself, I don't mind working a few jobs here and there just so that I could do whatever I want anywhere anytime,' she replied, smiling. 'Which reminds me I seriously have to look for a part-time soon. Ha!'

"I could help you get one. You seem to know magical creatures and my parents are always looking for any help they can get. Oh, and I have connections with curse breakers, a quidditch team manger and others people."

'Oh really? I was just gonna bartend for the night - I mean, that's probably the easiest way to get free booze - maybe get a freelance photographer job or something. But what you mentioned sound great too!'

Aragorn and Deirdre

- "I will destroy you in the most beautiful way and when I leave, I'll make you understand why they name storms after people."Message Me

Deirdre stood off to the side, patiently waiting with what looked like a flash of annoyance in her eye when a young female waitress passed her three times without asking if she needed anything. Deirdre was starting to fume; the level of disrespect leaving her unaccustomed. Her sharp nails begun to drum a steady beat on the wooden counter top.

- "I will destroy you in the most beautiful way and when I leave, I'll make you understand why they name storms after people."Message Me

Deirdre's brilliant blue eyes caught Aragorn approach from the corner but she remained, otherwise, silent. The girl stood there and watched, a bemused smirk tugging the corner of her mouth. "It's fine," she replied coolly, her tone indifferent as her eyes wandered to Aragorn.

- "I will destroy you in the most beautiful way and when I leave, I'll make you understand why they name storms after people."Message Me

She smirked wider and allowed her blue eyes to skirt his form, clearly amused. "For a knight in shining armor, you definitely raise the bar," she purred and then moved a step forward. "Does my knight have a name?"

- "I will destroy you in the most beautiful way and when I leave, I'll make you understand why they name storms after people."Message Me

"That's much cooler than an Irish myth," she said with a quirk of her brow, the bartender hovering. "Firewhiskey. On the rocks," she stated but her eyes never strayed from Aragorn until her drink was ready and served and she turned to politely take it. "What would my knight like to drink?" she mused and gently took a sip from the lip of the glass.

- "I will destroy you in the most beautiful way and when I leave, I'll make you understand why they name storms after people."Message Me

Deirdre tried not to appear impress as her eyes skirted over his frame, trying to pinpoint where she thought she had seen him before. "You work at Mungo's, don't you?" she inquired suddenly, her smirk widening.

- "I will destroy you in the most beautiful way and when I leave, I'll make you understand why they name storms after people."Message Me

"As inviting as that offer is," she said softly and placed a hand to his chest, her blue eyes dancing with amusement. "I'm a virgin and have never had a one night stand." She pulled him close. "Win me over me, date me and then... then you can have me." Straight to the point. A confident woman.
